High growth boards form new coalition Representatives of the eight largest growth school boards in Southern Ontario met March 20 to discuss the crisis each is facing in "trying to provide new schools in the midst of rapid growth and declining provincial funding. =i1,The Growth Boards Coalition is made up of the Roman Catholic Separate School Boards and the Public Boards in the regions of - Peel, Halton, York and Durham; - They have 400,000 students, 90,000 of whom are in "temporary" accommodation. On behalf of the eight boards, The Peel Board of Education and The Dufferin-Peel Roman Catholic Separate School Board will request an emergency meeting with Premier David Peterson. The hoards decided recently to form a coalition to seek creative solutions to the accommodation problem, All eight boards are in favour of a proposal, by the On- Annual Rates &@ Kountry Kreations ® 'New Country Gift Shoppe Opening Soon in Port Perry Watch for our Grand Opening GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CERTIFICATES tario Treasurer, that would give school boards the option to collect lot levies on newly constructed houses and use the money to build new schools. It is hoped that the meeting with the Premier would also in- _ clude the Ministers of Housing, Municipal Affairs, Education, Government Services and the Treasurer who are involved in an inter-ministerial committee to draft the legislation dealing with lot levies. Carolyn Parrish, Chairman of The Peel Board of Education, said, "The fact that the eight largest school boards in Southern Ontario met recently is a dramatic message to the Pro- vince. We represent almost 400,000 students. The taxpayers are tired of their children being educated in temporary accom- modation. We intend to work together to get our message to the Premier."
